Whats better
http://rksport.com/image?product_id=01093400&size=full
Or what I have already? The SLP High for system. Im looking for a better ram air induction. What do you all think is the best out there? That will be my next mod. |
I was looking at a system sort of like that also, i think it was called vortex or somethin like that.

both work the same, ram air doesn't work well, fender well works as well if not a little better. There is a vaccuum at the opening of the hood created by airflow over the car, that's why you see racers use either a pro stock scoop that sticks up, or cowl induction

The link to RKSport.com doesn't work for me.

so the intake that is hooked to the hood isn't where the engine gets air? ram air is an appearance mod only never performance, even the pontiac engineers said that with the gto, it's proven not to work, the whole purpose of these kits is to get the air from someplace that doesn't happen naturaly, air naturaly travels under the car.Even k&n says there is no way to dyno a car to show a difference in air intakes, and 99% of the aftermarket ones will give the exact same performance gain the only difference is marketing

MTI and FAST had the biggest gains

the first picture had a seal around the filter, so I would assume it seals to the hood
